Our researchers analyzed the data with 2023 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The shift in consumer behavior toward online shopping is notably driving the market growth. A significant driver in the programmatic AD spending market is the profound shift in consumer behavior toward online shopping. This transformation has been accelerated by various factors, such as increased Internet penetration, the widespread adoption of smartphones and other connected devices, and changes in lifestyle and preferences. As more consumers embrace the convenience and accessibility of online shopping, businesses are compelled to invest in digital marketing strategies to reach and engage with these audiences effectively. Advertising agencies play a vital role in managing programmatic TV campaigns, ensuring efficient ad posting across various platforms. They optimize ad inventory to reach target audiences effectively, leveraging insights from real-time data and insights. Additionally, they adapt strategies for the mobile web environment and navigate global trading actions to maximize campaign performance.
Moreover, the number of mobile payments is expected to increase during the forecast period. E-wallets are estimated to account for nearly 40-50% of the total number of e-commerce payments globally by 2022 and are estimated to account for more than 55% by 2026. The rise in the number of shoppers also raised the opportunity for companies to reach these shoppers via digital advertisements. The programmatic ad, in this case, aids easier and faster target reach for companies. Thus, rising shifts in consumer behavior toward online shopping will further boost the growth of the market during the forecast period.
High penetration of augmented reality (AR) technology in the advertising sector is an emerging trend shaping market growth. AR and VR are the new buzzwords in the advertisement sector. Advertising plays a key role in the penetration of new products in the market. AR advertisements are immersive and interesting, making them ideal for advertisers and viewers. Due to the increased use of mobile devices worldwide, advertisers are focusing on capturing a wider audience through AR advertisements. By pointing the smartphone at a product in a store, a customer can obtain all the information about a product. It allows the customer to view the product from different angles. The rise in mobile ad spending is a benefit for the mobile AR advertising sector.
As a result, companies are designing marketing campaigns that are easily accessible through smartphones and other devices. Some of the leading advertising companies are creating ads integrated with AR technology. Technavio predicts that most agencies will adopt AR as one of the most important modes of communication and ad development for clients, which, besides triggering the growth of digital advertising, will also foster the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Inconsistency in target demography and target reach is a significant challenge hindering market growth. The programmatic advertising market is characterized by fragmentation across platforms, devices, and channels, posing challenges for advertisers seeking reliable audience reach. Variances in target demographics, ad formats, and performance indicators complicate campaign management and optimization. Moreover, the proliferation of participants in programmatic advertising heightens the risk of advertising fraud through illegitimate traffic and non-human interactions, necessitating robust fraud detection systems for advertisers to protect their brands and budgets.
Additionally, adapting global strategies to local markets amidst cultural nuances and regulatory frameworks demands additional investment in localization. However, managing this complexity while complying with data privacy laws like GDPR and CCPA presents an ongoing challenge for advertisers. Market fragmentation amplifies costs across touchpoints, eroding advertiser confidence and potentially curtailing market investments, thereby impeding the growth of the market during the forecast period.

The open auction segment was the largest and was valued at USD 34.11 billion in 2018. Further, the moderate growth of the market segment is primarily attributed to the increasing number of vendors venturing into the digital advertising space, which allows publishers to get the best price for their inventory through open auctions. The open auction also allows publishers to monetize their excess inventory. These advertisements can target the required audience based on their history using the volumes of data available. The technique caters to the right people who are in the appropriate place at the correct time. The market share of the open auction segment is expected to decline despite it being the dominating segment in the market in focus. This decline is primarily because other categories are expected to gain more traction and visibility, which is likely to slow down the growth of the open auction segment in the market during the forecast period.
